I’m looking for a wiki to use and contribute to that provides information similar to what AllTrails provides, and functions similarly to Wikipedia. I would like for the wiki’s data to be free and open, and for it to operate under a reasonably permissive license.

Not so much a community. Ridiculously good resource though.
On a desktop browser, you can easily map a route a long multi day hike. You could then see stats on that trail like elevation (height, incline, etc ), ground (water, rock, dirt, pavement, etc) and coverage (none, trees, etc) and more.
So much more.
A crazy amount more.
Hrm, Caltopo appears to be more of a mapping service than a wiki for hike information. Furthermore, it appears to lock most of its features behind payed subscriptions [source], and it’s license appears to be a restrictive proprietary license [source].
🤷♂️
I get more out of their free version than I do out of the paid all trails app.
